Glad it all went well for you!!

Congrats on getting to "the" day. Best of luck on a speedy recovery!!!

Ahhh good luck!!! Excited for you

Congratulations. Walk as much as you can and sit up rather than lie down to get the gas out.

Going on day 2. All is well still haven’t eaten or drank anything....so weird not to be hungry. I was hungry all the time. Been up and walking although afterwards I’m exhausted. So far so good. Talked to my kids on the phone, they asked if I was skinny yet!
Caryn you truly have got this! Now keep on easin' down that road!
